Located: 21m N of NE corner of Cathedral (G. Conroy. 06-09-05). Described by Healy (1972, 45) as a ‘rectangular slab of mica schist 1.85m x 0.63m x 0.1m thick. The face of the slab is smooth and slightly concave. There is an oval perforation 0.2m x 0.16m near one corner, and a smaller perforation 0.07m x 0.03m near the other end of the slab. It is in a recumbent position and is overgrown with only the area around the larger perforation showing. No inscription is visible. Traditionally known as the “horse-dealer’s grave”’.
